public interface IBICalculatedMember
extends IBIMember

Represents a calculated member that does not exist in the metadata on the server, but is only valid within the context of a query. One way to think of a calculated member is to associate it with a formula. The data returned is then based on the evaluated formula and not on stored data in a cube.

One example of a calculated member is a calculated measure. If the cube only contains the net income and owners equity measures, you can easily calculate the measure return on investment (ROI) by specifying a calculated member with the formula net income / owners equity.

Method Detail

getSolveOrder

public int getSolveOrder()
                  throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

Specifies the order in which calculated members are calculated. Calculated members are calculated in ascending order of their solveOrder values.


setSolveOrder

public void setSolveOrder(int newValue)
                   throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

Specifies the order in which calculated members are calculated. Calculated members are calculated in ascending order of their solveOrder values.


getAxisDimension

public IBIAxisDimension getAxisDimension()
                                  throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

Represents the axis dimension to which the calculated member belongs.


getFormula

public IBIInputReference getFormula()
                             throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

Defines how the calculated member is calculated. As input, anything of type IBIInputReference is valid. This can include a static value in case of the type IBILiteralReference, or a very complex formula based on various operations.


setFormula

public void setFormula(IBIInputReference newValue)
                throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

Defines how the calculated member is calculated. As input, anything of type IBIInputReference is valid. This can include a static value in case of the type IBILiteralReference, or a very complex formula based on various operations.
